If we agree that there are grades or strengths to a reality bender's ability (i.e. from "can barely turn something blue" to "godlike"), then it's not too far of a stretch that a SRA is designed to overpower a reality bender of X grade or X strength.

Basically, the SRA forces reality to stay normal more than the bender tries to make reality abnormal.

Briefly, "the realization that each random passerby is living a life as vivid and complex as your own." Originally from the Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows, which has a lot more beautiful neologism definitions like this you might enjoy.
